Cale's eyes narrowed dangerously as he heard Rain's weapon activate.
"I certainly hope the troops on this ship are more well behaved than this. I would hate for Lord Mandalore to have to recruit replacements so late in the game."

Rook left the force users to themselves for most of the trip. Now came the time of trials.
Orbiting above a green planet, the ship placed sensor scans to find the best place to enter its landing zone.
"Please be seated, I have a feeling that we'll be bumpy on entry," Rook said, taking the controls and navagating the ship downwards. Through the clouds and atmosphere, the ship entered fog, as scanners lit up with massive abundant life signatures. Unlike his predecessors, Rook had this course planned and plotted long before his arrival, making his landing much smoother.
Heading out of the cockpit, he went to the exit ramp of the ship, a semi-foul stench echoing off the grounds.
"Where are you?" He asked the wilderness, stepping on the spongy ground.

Trey found his way out of the ship and descended the down ramp onto a soggy piece of marshland.
"Umm...so..."

"I wouldn't describe Dagobah as a lump of dirt. More swampy than dirt. And as far as I know, only one person could truely be called a survivor here. The rest of the base camp is simply here temporarily..." Rook retorted. "Though I am most disappointed at this punctuality."

Novara had only asked Cale not to bring his Dalyc because Vonet would be pissed to see anouther Dalyc on the ship. She was head strong and cocky. And Novaras wife.
As the two walked into the office the lights got alittle brighter and a large table was set. Food was set up and Vonet sat at the other end.
" Please have a seat. " Vonet got up. She was dressed in her royal armer. The top was armer and the bottom and a dress.
Novara had on his royal armer on as well. He turned to Cale and held out a hand.
" Captain. I hope you ..... " Novara looked at the officer. He walked up and gave a glare.
" If you would be so kind..... The weapon? Deactivate it. I will not have some pirate blasting some thing. " Novara walked to the table and sat down. Vonet watched as the two sat down.

Mordranna awoke in her quarters assigned to her by the Echani. She then went to fetch Rekan.
"We should probably see about procuring transport offworld, yes?" Making note of his seeming discomfort on the Echani world, she offered, "From here, I'm thinking of heading to either back to Corellia, or to Yavin. I imagine Master Skywalker should like to learn of your progress under my tutelage."

((Novara? Married? He's tougher than he looks. And its "Armor".))
Rain Snarled as she gripped her weapon tighter.
"You're not my damn boss you smug sonofa-"
Cale flicked a glance at her and gave a subtle shake of his head.
The Mando lowered the carbine and engaged the safety, still fuming at Novara.
"Lord Mandalore. A pleasure as always." Cale said with a formal bow towards Novara and his wife. "You look the part, If I do say so myself. I do however feel a tad underdressed for the occasion, what with all the armor abound. Please forgive my Second in command. Itchy trigger finger and all that, especially after that little bounty hunter run in on Ord Mantell." Cale seated himself while Rain continued to stand.
"The food looks absoluetly lovely." Cale remarked as he eyed the table "I'm a bit suprised you went through the trouble to prepare a meal for a minor buisness discussion."

Angel stepped out of the ship, joining the others, with her greatsaber still orbiting her. She kept maintaining a Force Levitate on it, her way of training while still being able to do other tasks. " Hmm... I thought keeping this up for so long would be hard. I guess there's more to learn the more you, well, learn. "

((FP, I only mentioned that Bestine was a waypoint. Not a destination. Read it again.))
"Don't waste your energy. If you wish to work your skills some, I suggest you try to find your guide. He is late.... for once..."

The greatsaber's orbit slowed down until it changed course and found its way into a pocket. " I suppose we'll do that then. That is why we're here, isn't it? " Angel said.

(( I was in a rush. Sorry. didnt see it. ))
Novara nodded and winced as Cale called him that name again.
" It was my fault for letting Red follow you. And what ever he did... i am sorry. He was one of my best. At least for having commanding tone about him. But a fool in battle. Never letting his brothers know what he was doing. Running off and fighting whole bands by himself. one track mind. I knew it would kill him one day. But i felt the food would be a nice treat. I had it made by my personal chief. Wounderful creature. Though i still have to find out what he is.... I found him and ...." Vonet kicked Novara under the table. Novara didnt move or show pain.
" .....I am sorry. I am rambling. To the matter at hand. I think..." Vonet cut in.
" As the new Mandalorian Leaders we will not be play like pawns. We wish to be treated as the stronger power we are. " Vonets tone was hard but not rude. She had a strait face.
" My dear i dont think..."
" Novey... Shut up. I will handle this. "
Novara looked as if he had been slapped.
" I am sorry for my wife. She forgets that we are...."
" I forget nothing! We are no longer under DSA rule. We have intel and command codes. We can bring the DSA to its knees! I will not let a pirate... Not to be rude... Push my husband around. Not like Drako did. " Vonet didnt look at Cale when she talked. She looked at Rain.
" Hunny. Your dont fool me. Take off the helm. " ( all said in Mando )

((No prob. just here to help))
{I never planned on fooling anyone. Nonetheless, the helmit stays. I recently recieved a rather severe wound I'd rather not be showing off.} Rain answered in her native tongue. {I am here just to support my captain. You want to talk top someone talk to him. I really have nothing to say to you people.}
Cale looked to his second, catching only a smattering of what was said. He shrugged and looked back across the table, his face a smile.
"A Pirate, Milady? Of course I am a pirate. I rob, I steal, I gamble, and I make Sectro Rangers pull at their hair. But Pirates do have an honor of their own. And just now, you insulted mine. Not a very good way to begin things I think."
Cale calmly began filling his plate with the nearby food and continued to speak.
"Milady, I did not tell your husband to come here. I Asked him to. The Starship Yard I had him steal was merely a test to see if I could trust him to be part of my operation. He succeeded in that endevor and for a time I believed I could trust him to be part of my grand scheme. Alas, when I found that his man -Red was it?- had been trailing me, that trust wavered. He destroyed public property on a world I require to maintain my fleet, got my quartermaster a stint in a bacta tank for the next week or so, and generally made himself out to be, in my eyes, less than what a Mandelorian should be, given your people's pride at arms. If the Lord Mandalore wanted to send me a bodyguard he should have told me to my face that he wanted to send a man to accompany me, not this sensorcloak and vibrodaggar buisness."
Cale ripped a piece of bread in half and munched down a piece. he stabbed a piece of some kind of tuber and crunched it. After he had swallowed his food, he looked down the table again, the smile gon from his face.
"I am not your superior Lord Mandalore, I am your equal. We are buisness partners in a scheme of my invention to make us all very profitable barves. I understand that the Mando'ade are not buisness beings and thus did I decide to handle that part of our arrangement for you. I do not intend to cheat you out of your fair share. Thats bad for buisness. Also its bad buisness to spy on your partner and interupt his buisness. And I demand compensation to make up for that. Six of your StarViper attack fighters should cover it."

Vonet stood up and bowed to Cale slightly. Looking at Rain she moved her hand to the door and waited for her to go with her.
" I see you two have much to talk about. { As do you and I. Come with me so we can leave the men to their talking. }
Novara watched the two leave.
" My Viper squad are my personal ships. You will not get any.... even if Red blew up the planet. I will how ever give you the station as I said. I was planning on selling it to you. But i will give it to you. It will be a moment befor you get it. I took a step in making sure you would not just take it. But..."
Novara got up and pulled out a small pad.
" I am sorry for my wife. She is ... Well Mandalorian. This pad has all the codes to the station. Change them and you should be right as rain. As for Red. He was... well bull headed. He insisted on thinking you were planning on attacking us. So i let him go. Yes he was one of mine making it my fault. I intend on making it up to you more then with just the station. "
Novara set the pad on the table and took off his helm. Setting it on the table he looked Cale dead in the eye.
" I am a tired Verd. I have seen enough killing. Drako has seen to that. I have done more wrong then right. I am only here to help you to stop Drako... " Novara turned to the sea food on the table. Picking up a large one and took a bite.

"Who's the guide?" Trey asked skeptically as he took a few more steps to adjust to the planet's gravity and test the marshground.
